Aurora, August 3, 1863.

Mr. Editor:–You will oblige me by inserting the following list of contributors for the State Sanitary Commission. I preached at Hartford two weeks ago yesterday, and the people of that place and vicinity responded most promptly to my call. If our people everywhere would only do their duty as nobly as did the people whose names are given below, it would carry relief and joy to many a poor sick soldier. Let the reader of this paper cut this list of contributors out and sent it, or else send the whole paper to some soldier from the vicinity of Hartford.

Yours very truly,
JOHN HOGARTH LOZIER.

How Sparta Township Does Business.
AURORA, Aug. 7, 1863.

Mr. Editor:–The people of Moore’s Hill and the surrounding portions of Sparta Township have gone and done it again! Last Sunday I preached in the morning to the people of Moore’s Hill, and in the afternoon to the Chestervillains. The way they responded to my call for the sick and wounded soldiers is an example worthy of all praise.

The Committee appointed at Moore’s Hill, of which John C. Moore was Chairman, did most nobly. They reported yesterday by the hand of George Wood, Esq., two hundred and twenty dollars, ($200.) Committee man Olcott, from Chesterville, reported one hundred and sixteen dollars and seventy-five cents (116.75.) Truly these are liberal and worthy communities. You will observe by the list of names that the village of Sparta was visited by Committeeman J. R. Thompson, and responded patriotically. May God’s blessing rest upon the proverbially liberal people of Moore’s Hill and vicinity, and may the bread that they thus cast upon the waters be found “after many days.”

Your friend,
JOHN HOGARTH LOZIER,
